today we had a really tough time getting started. just as we were starting, elazar woke up crying and jack was all over us, so it was tough for chana to concentrate with a whole lot of things going on around her.

in addition, chana's eye was twitching yesterday and she didn't know why. but today we figured it out, as it started twitching again as we started getting back into our pesukim. but despite her nervous eye twitch, i really didn't think it was going to be so bad. so we did it, and although i still had to prompt her for some, she generally remembered a lot of it. so we finished shishi and did the first pasuk of shvi'i, which she knew all of the words in, although it was a long pasuk.

i asked her afterwards if it was as bad as she thought it would be, and she said no. then she asked why her eye twitched. and i said because her body remembered how hard it was from yesterday and expected the same today. but happily it wasn't!

i skipped the biggest rashi today. maybe we'll get back to it?

tomorrow we will do the same thing again, and hopefully she'll have a bit more of a handle on it before heading out of shishi and into shvi'i.
